I have loved Japanese culture since I was young. It's so interesting to learn about the different aspects and especially the traditional clothing. Kimono are absolutely so beautiful!
@@CandiOsaka Common dress always has some measure of practicality in mind. More ostentatious styles of kimono, like for oiran and nobility, were designed with the necessity of help in mind; however, in a time when most people (i.e.: lower classes) did not have servants or necessarily anyone else capable of or willing to lend a hand, a strict two-person system doesn't work.
I think just the sheer task of putting on a kimono each morning preps a person for productivity. If I put all that work into putting on my clothes every day I would be so diligent and productive throughout the rest of the day!
If I had to put this much effort into merely getting dressed every day, that’d be productive enough. Dinner? Housework? I doubt I’d even get past the kimono.
This is so amazing and educational! I’m Japanese born in Japan but raised in the US from 5 years old. My mom is from Kyoto. She can put on her own Kimono but I have only wore a Kimono 2 times in my life. Even Japanese that are born and raised in Japan don’t have the knowledge and skill to put on their own Kimono these days. Many will hire someone like Moe to put it on them plus Kimonos are so expensive which is why In her moving video they were being very very gentle with it. Again most will rent a Kimono for an occasion. It is very hot in the summer so we wear a Yukata which is similar shape but much thinner. It’s easier to wear a Yukata since there is only 1 layer and these days they sell Yukata Kits that come with everything you need and some include wooden sandals too. Most of the cheap kits come with a faux obi (waist band) with a faux bow that is a fake bow that looks like it was made with the obi but it will have a metal piece on it so you can just stick it in your waist band in the back to make it look like you spent the time to put it on and tied it. Younger girls may have never worn a Kimono but Yukata is worn at summer festivals and firework shows. Moe does a beautiful job! I used to love seeing my mom’s Kimonos when I was growing up.
Very cool! I would love to see also what you call each piece you put on, and how you care for these elegant pieces, like how you clean them. Thank you for your videos, I really enjoy them! Sutan is so cute! What age can she wear Kimono?
I don't know what's the earliest age babies can wear a kimono, but Japanese people have a tradition called 'shichigosan' where they dress up children in traditional clothes at the age of 3, 5 and 7.
Nowadays most people get their kimono professionally cleaned by a kimono specialized cleaner. The traditional way is to undo all the seams in a kimono and return the kimono into its horizontal pieces of silk and wash those and resow it but you can also do an abbreviated wash where the kimono is not taken apart. If it’s a cotton or wool kimono you an easily wash at home but silk shrinks/stains when it gets wet so it needs to be handled more carefully. Obi are not washed. Hope that answers your question.
Yes, I would also like to know the Japanese and English name for each piece too. For the caring, I think they will need to send out the cloths to dry cleaning store. It would be great to know more!
This comment was almost a year ago but in case someone still wonders about the names of each piece: [disclaimer I am just an enthusiast so I might be wrong. Also, many pieces can have more than one name!] The underkimono is called nagajuban. The kimono itself is called Kimono and in this case it's an Iromuji (solid color). The ties that are used to close the kimono are called koshihimo (the one that ties at the waist/hips) and munahimo (the one that ties under the chest). I am not sure what the name of the tie with the square cloth at the back is but it might be a special type of Datejime. The wide pink piece that covers the chest is called obita. The kimono belt is called obi and in this case it's a type of Nagoya obi. The cord that holds the obi is called obijime. The "pillowy-thingie" used to shape the knot is called obimakura. The scarf that covers the obimakura is called obiage. Also, the type of knot she did is called Taiko musubi. I think that's all! As for cleaning: It highly depends on the type of kimono. Cotton or Polyester modern kimonos you can throw in the wash and they will be fine but silk kimonos need to be send to a professional. Also, have in mind that kimono is not worn directly over the skin and therefore doesn't need to be wash regularly . Instead, after wearing it just needs to be hanged in a well ventilated area overnight (or for a week if you are as lazy as I am). For more info on this topic in particular, I highly recommend watching Billy Matsunaga's video here in youtube called "The kimono cleaning guide".
Hi Kimono Mom! I absolutely love your kimono! I have always been fascinated with kimonos and so I would love to see a separate video of your collection of kimonos! How you keep them clean? How you store them? Which one is your favorite? Do some of your kimonos have a story behind them? Oh so many questions! 😊😊😊
please give us a tutorial on how you do your hair-- the hairstyle you wear with your kimono. it's so elegant! warm wishes to you, moto and sutan from manila!
So pretty. I love kimonos they look incredible. Only have ever worn a yukata but my friend is from japan and for a school event her mom wore a really pretty kimono. ❤️
When I visited Tokyo I was able to experience being dressed in a kimono and walking around Asakusa for my friend’s birthday celebration! I was absolutely in love with it and the ladies that dressed me were amazing and so skilled. Seeing you dress yourself is amazing! And what a gorgeous kimono 😍 I hope next time I visit I’m able to experience it once again and find out more about the history of kimono! Love your channel!
My family was under this impression too when they visited Japan. No matter how "lowly" or "important" the job was, the workers put so much care and effort into what they do and that makes all the difference.
How wonderfully enchanting. Kimonos are definitely on my top lists of things to try and experience. They are just so beautiful and rich with history. I absolutely love love looking at them!
I am here because I saw you in Paolo´s video. You are so beautiful and elegant! I love how you teach about how to wear Kimono´s and how to do the tradition hair styles. Its so lovely to see how you care to take care of heritage like that :) Thank you for sharing!
@@naritruwireve1381 yes it’s super hot in a Kimono in the summer which is why there is a Yukata which is similar shape but much thinner material. Even though not many women wear Kimonos anymore there are many women that wear A Yukata in the summer for festivals and fireworks shows It’s been so modernized that you can get a pretty cheap Yukata kit. It comes with everything you need, some even come with wooden sandals as well. I have a couple, I was born in Japan and raised from 5 years old in the States by my Japanese parents and I own 3 sets. They all have the obi (belt like material around the waist and a bow that has a metal piece so you can just tuck that piece in the back of the obi so you don’t have to do all that work Moe did in her video to make the back part beautiful ☺️
I see why it’s common for Japanese women to have someone help them to put on the kimono. To do it by yourself is amazing. I think this is probably something that was part as your training to be a maiko.
Once, when i was in a vacation in Tokyo, I saw a lady with kimono in a commuter line, Such a great experience to saw a beautiful culture, right infront my eyes.
I never thought that there are so many steps till you wear correctly an kimono...but when somebody with a lot of experience shows it to you it's not only very interesting it's like some kind of art...absolutely stunning...
I was already thinking it, but after watching this video I'm absolutely sure: you're THE Yamato Nadeshiko. I didn't know it was possible to dress up by oneself, you're amazing. I'm sure you'd be pretty with any dress, but nothing brings out your beauty like a kimono. I'd also like to see more hairstyles that go well with kimono (as separate videos, for sure I'm not expecting you wearing them while cooking)
It's a lovely costume. It causes one to wonder how long a kimono like this is worn throughout the day? Is it easy to make restroom breaks? Why is it double layered? The beautifully patterned flower material beneath the baby blue over layer was too pretty to hide. Perhaps different patterns as these are interchangeable? I'm always intrigued by the kimono kitchen apron you use when cooking. It's clever and very useful. 👋😊👍
Thank you for this video!! I am very interested in Japanese culture!! Everything always looks so beautiful. I hope to one day visit your country and see all it's beautiful traditions in person.💕
The kimono is so beautiful and you look so beautiful in it. But the sheer effort just to put it on (and you're experienced in it too) is really amazing. I'd love to wear the kimono some day but i can't imagine how long i would take just to get it on
Dzień dobry. Prezentacja całego procesu zakładania kimona jest wspaniała.Kimono przepiękne. This kimono is absolutely beautiful and awesome.Respect for beautiful culture 🇯🇵👏All the best from Poland 🕊️🇵🇱🤝
Kimonos are so gorgeous, every kimono is a piece of art. I love how beautiful you look. I went to Japan and I wear a kimono too, it was an AMAZING experience. Thanks for this video.
That was a beautiful demonstration Moe. Kimono is such a beautiful and elegant form of dress. I don’t know how you can manage to wear so much fabric in the hot and humid Japanese summers though. That must be stifling !? I know asian people don’t sweat quite like we western women do. I know I wouldn’t last 5 minutes with that much fabric around me before I would have heat stroke. Kudos to you for sharing your beautiful traditional clothing!
Putting on a kimono seems to take as much energy as cooking a meal! I would love to see the kimono at the end of your cooking videos so we can appreciate the hard work you put into both endeavors!
I cant believe myself watching this so seriously like I don't wanna miss any part of folding, especially the obi part 🤯 If possible, maybe you could make a bit story of kimono and the background why you're so excited with it since childhood. With that I believe people will be able to learn and understand about the Japanese culture further! 😊
That's a very elaborate process. I think it will take time for me to learn how you do it by myself. Thanks for sharing though. Always love seeing people in kimono coz its very elegant to see on ladies
This is so mesmerizing. Would love to know the detail of esch pieces, what it's called, what's the use and the philosophy behind it. And how you get soo good at wearing kimono without help 😮
So beautiful! I would love to see a video from you, in which you show us your kimono collection and explain which Kimono you can wear in the different seasons of the year or to which ocasion. Or the rules how to combine different Kimono and obi.
Kimono mom it is amazing that you can get dressed by yourself. I know that there are many layers and it takes a LOT of strength to get the kimono ties... wow. Would love to see your favorite kimonos
When I was a little girl, (many years ago) I took traditional Japanese dance lessons in Hawaii. I did that for about 10 years, but I quit when I decided to focus more on Taiko. We learned how to put on a kimono, and let me tell you, it is not easy to put on by yourself. Otsukaresama Moe-chan!
I was very lucky to try on a kimono about 3 years ago at doki doki (Japanese convention) in Manchester. It's surprising how much effort goes into wearing it, but I loved it 😊
It's hard but it's beautiful and now I know why women rarely can wear kimono without the help of others, except you. Sutan is really fortunate to have a mother who is good at educating children, cooking and of course wearing kimono. I can't wait to see Sutan wearing his own kimono.
Me : Watching how to wear kimono Also me : wait i don't have a kimono Edit: Thanks for 14 likes ( ◠‿◠ ) Edit : OMG thanks for 35 likes Edit : It's 83L now!
You are so pretty and elegant! I always think kimono is very beautiful but I don’t have much knowledge about it. I would like to see a video about kimono in more details like what each part called, what are they for, and do you wear special kimono at certain occasions. Thank you
Honestly, I can't blame you for liking kimonos since when you were a child. I felt and still fell the same thing with medieval swords and the armors; in fact, I'm an apprentice knight 😃
I love how the burgundy obi cord contrasts the color of the obi and the bright blue Iromuji. Recently, I developed interest on kumihimo so my eyes are always piqued towards the obijime and how it matches with the obi 😁. I am new to the world of wafuku and I am especially interested with the rules of coordinating kimono and obi and the social ettiquette that follows. It would be great if you could cover it someday!
Claudette Maria you seem knowledgeable about kimono! I think she isn’t wearing an iromuji here, though I can definitely see why you thought that, it’s hard to see with the glare and her movement, but I do see sporadic leaf patterns so this is a tobigara Komon, not an iromuji. Thought it’s such a subtle pattern it is much closer to the iromuji side of the spectrum in terms of overall impression and formality. I liked the color combination here too. Very classic, very Kyoto.
@@Satopi3104 Thank you for the correction! I know very little about komon so this is very informative! I actually first knew of the term tobigara from your reply. This motivated me to learn more ☺. I failed to catch the pattern because I watched this in a place with bad internet connection, so the video is quite blurry. Or maybe I simply missed it (sadly, I still could not catch it so maybe I'll try rewatching the video in a place with better signal.) Thanks again and have a great day/night 😊!
@@claudettemaria3061 oh yeah, it would be impossible to catch with a bad connection. It's SUUUUPER subtle and upon a second review it seems a woven pattern (so it's not a different color dyed onto the fabric). I initially thought it was a different color and it kept fading in and out of view because of the glare, but I think I was wrong and it's a pattern woven into the cloth and you can only see it when the light catches it. This makes me less confident in my assessment that this is tobigara komon since iromuji does have these background woven patterns and I think by definition a komon has to have a pattern dyed into it. It could be that this iromuji has a "louder" background pattern than most I am used to and the larger of those background patterns just happens to catch the light well and be fairly clear, even from a distance. (If you keep watching her left boob area (our right) you can probably catch glimpses of it). The background pattern of iromuji in the Tokyo area is more subtle than this, but iromuji is more popular in the Kansai area (where she lives) so my having not seen an iromuji like this does not mean anything. I actually think I am going to retract my comment and agree with you this is iromuji after all. Tobigara komon is a real thing though - please do look it up if you are interested. It's a nice "in between" sort of kimono that you can dress up or down very easily, so I like them. Anyways I hope you are doing well, where ever in the world you happen to be right now!
Love this video! Could you please make a video of where to get kimono such as the one you are wearing? I want one too but don't know where to start. I love your kimono style though! Simple and elegant.
Could you please do a slower version of this video so I can follow along? 😁😁😁 Maybe you could also talk about what color combinations you recommend, your favorite kimonos, etc? Thank you!
I loved this! I would love to know the names for all the parts of the kimono and the function that they perform! Also I would love to see a video about your favourite kimono shops and current kimono trends!
Thank you for watching! This is my first “GRWM” Please let me know what you think☺️✨
Amazing, Moe-san! Thank you so much!
How long does it take you to put it on? It’s so intricate, kimono is art
着物大好きです高いけど😅

I was very lucky to try on a kimono about 3 years ago at doki doki (Japanese convention) in Manchester. It's surprising how much effort goes into wearing it, but I loved it 😊
It's hard but it's beautiful and now I know why women rarely can wear kimono without the help of others, except you.
Sutan is really fortunate to have a mother who is good at educating children, cooking and of course wearing kimono. I can't wait to see Sutan wearing his own kimono.
Me : Watching how to wear kimono
Also me : wait i don't have a kimono

Your way seems so much easier to do than the way I learned! I’ll have to try it this way now. :) Thank you!!!
Its amazing to see you wear kimono. I hope to wear one in the future as well. Thanks for sharing this video.
Great video! Very instructive! Lots of love from Spain!!!!
You are so pretty and elegant! I always think kimono is very beautiful but I don’t have much knowledge about it. I would like to see a video about kimono in more details like what each part called, what are they for, and do you wear special kimono at certain occasions. Thank you
You are so beautiful and elegant! And that kimono is a piece of art! Can't imagine how much it must cost.thank you for the educational video!
Your english is getting better and better each day 🤍 thank you for the tutorial!
I come from China and nothing could describe how much I admire you because we have lost our tradition forever.
Honestly, I can't blame you for liking kimonos since when you were a child.
I felt and still fell the same thing with medieval swords and the armors; in fact, I'm an apprentice knight 😃
omg i love your videos, it's so interesting culturally and your personality is just beautiful as is Sutan, keep up the good work
So elegant and gorgeous
Beautiful! I would love to see a video of kimono hairstyle :)
Wow! How beautiful! I've only seen videos where there were helpers and I never knew it could be done without them! Thank you for sharing!
Your hard work to learn English truly shows! Much love. Thank you for this informative video 💕
I love how the burgundy obi cord contrasts the color of the obi and the bright blue Iromuji.
Recently, I developed interest on kumihimo so my eyes are always piqued towards the obijime and how it matches with the obi 😁.
I am new to the world of wafuku and I am especially interested with the rules of coordinating kimono and obi and the social ettiquette that follows. It would be great if you could cover it someday!
Claudette Maria you seem knowledgeable about kimono! I think she isn’t wearing an iromuji here, though I can definitely see why you thought that, it’s hard to see with the glare and her movement, but I do see sporadic leaf patterns so this is a tobigara Komon, not an iromuji. Thought it’s such a subtle pattern it is much closer to the iromuji side of the spectrum in terms of overall impression and formality.
I liked the color combination here too. Very classic, very Kyoto.
@@Satopi3104 Thank you for the correction! I know very little about komon so this is very informative! I actually first knew of the term tobigara from your reply. This motivated me to learn more ☺.
I failed to catch the pattern because I watched this in a place with bad internet connection, so the video is quite blurry. Or maybe I simply missed it (sadly, I still could not catch it so maybe I'll try rewatching the video in a place with better signal.)
Thanks again and have a great day/night 😊!
@@claudettemaria3061 oh yeah, it would be impossible to catch with a bad connection. It's SUUUUPER subtle and upon a second review it seems a woven pattern (so it's not a different color dyed onto the fabric). I initially thought it was a different color and it kept fading in and out of view because of the glare, but I think I was wrong and it's a pattern woven into the cloth and you can only see it when the light catches it. This makes me less confident in my assessment that this is tobigara komon since iromuji does have these background woven patterns and I think by definition a komon has to have a pattern dyed into it. It could be that this iromuji has a "louder" background pattern than most I am used to and the larger of those background patterns just happens to catch the light well and be fairly clear, even from a distance. (If you keep watching her left boob area (our right) you can probably catch glimpses of it). The background pattern of iromuji in the Tokyo area is more subtle than this, but iromuji is more popular in the Kansai area (where she lives) so my having not seen an iromuji like this does not mean anything. I actually think I am going to retract my comment and agree with you this is iromuji after all. Tobigara komon is a real thing though - please do look it up if you are interested. It's a nice "in between" sort of kimono that you can dress up or down very easily, so I like them.
Anyways I hope you are doing well, where ever in the world you happen to be right now!
ルックス良し！性格良し！お料理上手！賢くて、やんわりで、どこをとっても完璧過ぎて見惚れますー！！あっという間にファンになりました:)
thank you so much for teaching me this! i always struggle to wear this for special events 😅😅. but i know 😌❤️❤️❤️
My arms feel tired from this video!! This is so beautiful wow
Just stunning!👘 I’d love to see how you style your hair for kimono.
I remember how my sister and I were looking for a straight forward video of how to wear a kimono and now we have one! 👍🏼😃
This kimono is so preety 😍 I love japanese tradition.
It looks so complicated but it's so beautiful! thank you for sharing. I hope someday I get to wear a kimono too 💖😍😊
I've never seen such gorgeous and luxurious fabric! Beautiful video ❤️
There isn't anyone more beautiful than a beautiful Japanese lady in Japan wearing a beautiful Kimono . Thank you very much ! 🌺 ♥️
That was so beautiful. To watch you put on a Kimono by yourself was virtuosic.
Love this video! Could you please make a video of where to get kimono such as the one you are wearing? I want one too but don't know where to start. I love your kimono style though! Simple and elegant.
I do wonder how hot or cold one can get with that many layers. Also the work to get on the cloth tail...intricate. So many waistbands....I never knew
Could you please do a slower version of this video so I can follow along? 😁😁😁 Maybe you could also talk about what color combinations you recommend, your favorite kimonos, etc? Thank you!
Oh whoa! The way you do this is so precise and practiced. You look amazing!
How beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing this video! I can't wait to see Sutan wearing her first kimono 😊
I think the hairstyle you have takes more time than wearing the kimono ! Very beautiful
I loved this!
I would love to know the names for all the parts of the kimono and the function that they perform!
Also I would love to see a video about your favourite kimono shops and current kimono trends!
I just watched you on Paolo's channel so I just subscribed to yours! This is wonderful to watch to see how kimonos are worn. Thank you!
Very elegant and classic. You did it so well. Beautiful!
